Dassault Falcon 7X Business Executive Aeroplane Registration OY-EJD. SCO 11,242.
The Falcon 7X is a three-engined cantilever monoplane with a low-positioned, high swept wing, it has a horizontal stabiliser at mid-height and a retractable tricycle landing gear. It has three rear-mounted Pratt & Whitney PW307A turbofan engines, two on the side of the fuselage and one in a center position. The long-range trijet has room for 20 passengers and two crew. It is the first fully fly-by-wire business jet. It is also equipped with the same avionics suite, the Honeywell Primus Epic "Enhanced Avionics System" (EASy), that was used on the Falcon 900EX and later on the Falcon 2000EX. The Falcon 7X is notable for its extensive use of computer-aided design, the manufacturer claiming it to be the "first aircraft to be designed entirely on a virtual platform", using Dassault Systemes' CATIA and PLM products. It is also unusual in having an S-duct central engine, and is one of only three trijets currently in production, the other being the Dassault Falcon 900. It was also the first production Falcon jet to offer winglets. In February 2010, Dassault Falcon and BMW Group DesignworksUSA were awarded the 2009 "Good Design” award by The Chicago Athenaeum and The European Centre for Architecture Art Design for their successful collaboration on the new Falcon 7X interior option.
